A Manhattan is a cocktail made with bourbon, sweet vermouth, and bitters. The drink is often served with a maraschino cherry.
Manhattans are thought to have been first made at the Manhattan Club in New York City in the early 1870s. The drink was popularized by bartender Harry Johnson, who included it in his 1882 book “The Bartender’s Manual”.
There are many variations of the Manhattan, such as the dry Manhattan and the perfect Manhattan.
